Caution!

I was plugging along, enjoying this story, until I came to page 54, where I learned that the United States Senate has only fifty members and that Thomas Jefferson wrote the Constitution. I don't know from Armani trousers and Louis Vuitton Tambour chronographs, Prada boots or Panasonic PV-GS250...

Strange book

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this book; it had been purchased for me as a gift. If the author was intending the book to be a James Bond-type affair, with technology and gadgets that are completely implausible, then I understand. However, it seemed that it was written with the...

Pulp Shooter

Thriller based on a US sniper and co-written by an ex-sniper. In essence this is a conspiracy story with political forces trying to force an agenda of employing mercenaries (in the form of large private `security' companies) to replace the US military, and our hero sniper gets caught in the...

Good action novel

Well-done, fast-reading action novel. The plot is highly implausible, but more than compensated for by good action writing and character creation. A good book for a long plane trip.

Mitch Rapp Could Take Lessons from This Guy!!

I never know who to praise when I read a book with co-authors. I know that Jack Coughlin was a top Marine sniper, so I am sure that the authenticity that prevails throughout the book can be attributed to him and that Davis has written a number of books, so I suspect he is the wordsmith. No...

Ok action, but poor technically

An OK book but the author does not know military fighter aircraft. F-14's are no longer in the active Navy inventory (since Sept 2006) and their wings do not fold. AV-8's do not have multiple engines and the wings are fixed AND they do not have afterburners. F-16's do not land on carriers.

Plot poor; writing amateurish

A marine sniper gets sent in to rescue a captured American general and along the way, saves the U.S. from being taken over by the bad guys. The story is loaded with unrealistic scenarios, cartoonish villains, and trite dialogue.

Horrible writing, poor plot, no redeeming feature.

Of perhaps 6000 lifetime books read I have set aside only a few (10?)which I found unreadable. This is one of the 10!

Outstanding Action Book!

This is a very good book about snipers. I hope this turns out to be a series. In this book a Marine Corps General Bradley Middleton is kidnapped inSaudi Arabia bywhat is first thought to be terrorists. These kidnappers turn out to know English. He is then taken hostage. The hero of our story...
